AGENDA ITEM NO. [ 3]
CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF: February 5, 1974
Public hearing - Reconsideration of tentative map for Zenith II, PCS-73-2 -
American Housing Guild
ITEM TITLE: Resolution - Approving tentative map of Zenith II subdivision, PCS-73-2
INITIATED BY: Director of Planning
A. BACKGROUND
On October 16, 1973 the City Council, by a 4-1 vote, denied the tentative map of
Zenith II subdivision on the basis that:
1. The design is incompatible with the topography;
2. The design results in peculiar configuration of open space areas on adjacent
properties;
3. The deve1oper,+ together with staff, should investigate the possibi1 ity of a land
swap to improve both the configuration of the development and the configuration
of adjacent properties.
This map is being returned to the Council by order of the Superior Court under a
writ of mandate requiring Council to consider the map on its own merits without
, regard to adjacent City property.
<."
.;
B. ANALYSIS
While it must be r.ecognized that approval of the map as recommended by the Planning
Commission results in the creation of peculiarly shaped open space areas in City
ownership, it is true that the development does conform with the Zoning Ordinance
and the Subdivision Ordinance. The difficulty could be largely resolved if the
applicant volunteered to consider an exchange of property or if East Palomar Street
or Oleander Avenue did not have to be e'xtended. However, the applicant has firmly
expressed the desire to develop only the property presently.under his control and the
extension of Palomar Street and Oleander Avenue is vital to the development of a
satisfactory circulation system for the area. Approval of the tentative map as
recommended by the Planning Commission appears to be the lesser of several evils at
this time.

Mayor Thomas D. Hamilton, Jr.
The City of Chu1a Vista
Post Offiec Box 1087
Chnla Vista, California 92012
Dear Mayor Hamilton:
We regretfully were not informed of the Public Hearing last. Tuesday concerning the
Open Space District in Larldlaven, and thus were unable to defend ourselves against
some serious allegations.
As you recall, we protested to you at the time of Tentative Map Approval that the
requirement for this Assessment District was unfair and presented serious inequities.
You chose to compel it anyway, and further required that we include in the C. C. & R. 1 S
for the proj ect a provision wherein owners of the lots would be prohibited from
opposing the formation of the District.
For your information, the provision was included ill the C. C. & U. 1 s, which is a
recorded document, and further we are required to have all buyers sign a statement
that they have read and received a copy of the C. C. & R. I s. The statements made by
several owners at the Hearing that they had never heard of the District is just simply
untrue. Inasmuch as we predicted there would be buyer resistance to this Assessment
District, we instructed our salesmen to purposely inform verbally all buyers of the
District as well as mention the inclusion of such statement in the C. C. & R. t s.
I have read a newspaper account of the Hearing which stated that the Council may want
to change its policy governing such a situation in the future. We certainly hope that is
the case, as you evidently see now that the built-in inequities are seized upon very
readily by buyers even though they legally are compelled not to protest such an action.
I feel there are better solutions, and I am most willing to propose alternatives should
such a requirement arise in the future.
Sincerely,
AMERICAN HOUSING GUILD - SAN DIEGO
